Hunting and Fishing was around for decades, but it really hit its target design-wise in the mid-to-late '30s. That red just pops on eve...

His + Hirst

I always like a bargain when taxidermy shopping. Sotheby's London is keeping its fingers crossed that a lot of people appreciate a taxidermy mark up. A whole slew of Damien Hirst's prized formaldehyde-soaked carcasses (and medicine cabinets and paintings and marble statues) hit the block on Sept. 15. The crowning jewel of the sale: The Golden Calf, a little white cow with 14K gold horns and an angelic gold disk in a big ole tank. It can be yours for an estimated £8 million to £12 million. The "Damien Hirst: Beautiful Inside My Head Forever" catalog went online today.

The Lever House installation was outrageous and haunting. It reminded me, in a way, of the movie "Coma". Have you ever seen that? With Genevieve Bujold? Not a great film, quite creepy though. But all those body parts in the glass cabinets just reminded me a bit of that film.
